United Cargo has announced a new freight connection between New York and Dubai and the resumption of other services earlier halted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The American cargo operator said the New York-Dubai service would launch this month, providing its customers faster and more efficient access to United's cargo destinations.

It also connects key markets across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.

"We're also resuming service on three routes previously interrupted during the pandemic," United Cargo said.

These cargo routes are from San Francisco (SFO) to Hong Kong (HKG), Denver (DEN) to Tokyo-Narita, Japan (NRT), and Washington (IAD) to Amsterdam (AMS).
